Hearing this, Tang Shan immediately cupped his fists and thanked him,""Thank you for your reminder, Master Chuan Yue. We will be careful.”
Funakoshi Fumio nodded and turned his gaze to Chen Zhen. He sighed and said,"Sigh, this old man has been cultivating bitterly for decades, but I can't compare to you young people comprehending the Dao in a day. Old! I'm really old!"
As he said that, he turned around and left.
Tang Shan then kowtowed to Huo Yuanjia a few more times and asked for his opinion before passing the Shadow Fist to Huo Tingen and Chen Zhen.
Huo Ting 'en had learned the Shadow Fist before Huo Yuanjia died, but he was not very proficient. With Tang Shan's guidance, many of the difficult parts were immediately cleared up, and his progress was naturally very fast. On the other hand, Chen Zhen was extremely talented. Coupled with the fact that he had just broken through the barrier of being a grandmaster, his learning speed was no slower than Huo Tingen's.
Just like that, Tang Shan earnestly taught while Chen Zhen and Huo Ting 'en worked hard to learn. In just four or five hours, the two had already mastered all the key points of the Shadow Fist. In the future, all that was left was to practice diligently.
Seeing that the sun was setting, the three of them stopped their excitement and returned to Jingwu Sect.
Tang Shan returned to his room after dinner. After washing up, he checked the system's background. At this moment, he had completed his sixth main mission. He had also completed an additional side mission, which was to teach Chen Zhen and Huo Ting 'en the Shadow Fist. The sixth main mission had given him 1000 experience points, while the side mission " Strength Transfer " had given him 300 experience points. He now had 1850 experience points.
At the same time, the seventh main mission was also released.
[Main Mission 7: As Funakoshi Fumio has returned to Japan, and his duel with the host is unknown, the Japanese military is furious. Major General Fujita Gang of the Japanese Army in Shanghai is prepared to challenge the host personally. The host must kill Fujita Gang on the premise of protecting the Jingwu Gate.]
[Mission time limit: Unlimited.]
[Mission Reward: 1500 Experience Points, 2 Mysterious Scrolls, Return to the Real World]
[Mission Failure: Death]
After reading the description of the mission, Tang Shan's eyelids twitched. He saw two results from this mission. One was to return to the real world, and the other was to die. No matter which result it was, it seemed to be stating the fact that he did not have much time left in this world.
At this moment, Tang Shan had already developed a strong sense of belonging to this world. Although he still had his life and his family in the real world, he also had his family here. Everyone in the Jingwu Sect was his family. Therefore, when he finished reading the mission description, he felt a little reluctant and a little uncomfortable.
After a moment of hesitation, Tang Shan thought of the system and asked,""System, will I be forced to return to the real world after completing the mission?”
The System replied," Yes, because this is only a movie world. After the host completes the final mission, there will be no follow-up plot. Therefore, the host will not be able to continue staying in this world.”
"Then can I bring the things I get here back to the real world?" Tang Shan asked again.”
The System said," The host can retain the abilities obtained in the movie world, but the resources cannot be taken out.”
After chatting with the system, Tang Shan had a better understanding of its settings. Although some of the settings were ruthless, it was understandable from another perspective.
With a thought, Tang Shan closed the system interface. He rested his hands on his head and stared at the ceiling in a daze. Thoughts were rising and falling in his mind. What he was thinking about now was not the question of whether he should leave this world or not. After all, he was also a person who could take things up and let go. Since he knew that the outcome was already set, it was futile to struggle any more.
What he was thinking about now was the problem of the path of retreat for the Fine Martial Sect.
Just as the quest description stated, he had to kill Fujita Gang, or he would die. However, after killing Fujita Gang, he could leave everything behind and return to the real world, but the Jingwu Sect was also finished. No matter what, Fujita Gang was a major general in the Japanese army. His status was not something that Akutagawa Ryuichi could compare to. If he was killed like this, even if Tang Shan had the status of a first-class earl in the United Kingdom, he would not be able to hold on.
After thinking for half a night, there was still no proper solution. Tang Shan dismissed his distracting thoughts and no longer thought about this problem.
The night was silent.
The next day, after his morning exercise, Tang Shan went to the British Embassy. The British Consul, Charles, was naturally very happy to see Tang Shan and warmly received him.
In the chat, Tang Shan indirectly mentioned the problem of the Jingwu Sect's backup plan. He hoped that Charles could come forward to protect the Jingwu Sect when something happened. Charles was able to sit in his position today, so he was naturally a smart person. From the conversation, he realized that Tang Shan might have to leave Shanghai, and without Tang Shan, Jingwu Sect was worthless in his eyes. Therefore, as an Englishman who was deeply influenced by capitalists, Charles did not refuse Tang Shan's request. Of course, he did not agree immediately.
This path did not work, and Tang Shan had to change his approach. He hoped that Charles could be a notary in his next duel. Charles was naturally happy about this.
Of course, Tang Shan did not say that he was going to kill Fujita Gang. Otherwise, even if Charles was stupid, he would not agree. It wasn't until Tang Shan killed Fujita that Charles realized that he had been tricked. As a result, he was temporarily recalled by the Queen of England and lost his position as ambassador to China. He was also taught a lesson by the Queen. However, these were all things for the future.
Tang Shan's brows immediately relaxed after receiving Charles 'promise. After that, he chatted with Charles for a while. It was not until after lunch that he returned to Jingwu Sect.
As soon as Tang Shan returned to Jingwu Sect, he learned that Hongkou Dojo had sent a letter of challenge. He immediately called Chen Zhen, Huo Ting 'en, and Nong Jinsun into the room to discuss the next step.
As soon as he sat down, Huo Ting 'en spoke first,""Eldest Senior Brother, what do the Japanese mean? Their Hongkou Dojo was clearly defeated by us, so why did they send a letter of challenge?”
"This matter is completely within my expectations.”" Because the Black Dragon Gang is not the only one behind the Hongkou Dojo," Tang Shan said seriously." The Japanese military is also behind it." In order to invade China, the Japanese military had formulated a series of plans to attack the martial masters of China. Now that Hongkou Dojo had run into a wall here, this was naturally not something the Japanese military wanted to see. Therefore, it was understandable that they would challenge the Jingwu Sect again.”
"Then do we accept it?" Huo Tingen asked again.
Tang Shan said," Of course we have to accept it. The more we are facing a national crisis, the more we cannot lose the backbone of the people of China."”
"Eldest Senior Brother is right!”
At this moment, Nong Jinsun, who had been silent all this while, suddenly said,""Ah Shan, have you ever thought that the Japanese might not come with good intentions this time? In this challenge, regardless of whether we win or lose, I'm afraid we will lose in the end!”
As expected, the older the ginger, the spicier it became. Nong Jinsun had obviously thought of what Tang Shan was worried about.
Tang Shan nodded." Uncle Nong, I've actually thought of what you've thought of as well. This is also the reason why I called you in for a chat."”"Now, I'll talk about the path that the Fine Martial Sect will take in the future.”
Tang Shan looked at Huo Tingen and continued,""Tingen, from today onwards, you are the master of the Essence Martial Sect. Remember your master's teachings and bring the Essence Martial Sect to greater heights.”
" Eldest Senior Brother, you…" Huo Ting 'en didn't feel happy when he heard this. Instead, he was surprised.
But before he could finish, Tang Shan interrupted,""I believe that you can do a good job as the dojo master.”
"Yes!" Although Huo Tingen didn't know why Tang Shan would do this, he still nodded his head heavily.
Tang Shan turned to look at Chen Zhen and said,"" Chen Zhen, you're very diligent and steady. Your martial arts skills are not inferior to mine either. In the Fine Martial Arts Sect, all the juniors are very impressed by you, so I want you to take charge of the branch in Hong Kong. That's where the British belong, and the Japanese can't reach there. Even if something happens, the Fine Martial Sect will have a way out.”
"Yes, sir!" Chen Zhen also nodded heavily.
Then, Tang Shan looked at Nong Jinsun and said,""Uncle Nong, the Essence Martial Sect is your blood and sweat. You have to watch Ting En more in the future. Don't let him go down the wrong path.”
" Ah Shan, why do you have to…" Nong Jinsun sighed.
At this point, Chen Zhen vaguely understood Tang Shan's plan, so he asked,""Eldest Senior Brother, are you…"
Tang Shan interrupted Chen Zhen." Chen Zhen, it seems that you've already thought of it. That's right. I'm just giving my funeral arrangements." Just as Uncle Nong said, we lost this duel from the start. No matter what the outcome is, the Japanese will not let me leave alive. Therefore, I have no choice but to make arrangements for the aftermath of the martial arts sect.”
" Eldest Senior Brother…" Huo Ting 'en immediately understood what Tang Shan meant. He felt a lump in his throat, and his eyes reddened. He felt terrible.
Chen Zhen's eyes were also moist and he was silent.
